Win gadgets that power your gadgets
18.05.12
On Saturday, I reviewed several different devices that will charge your cell phones, smart phones, and other gadgets when you lose power. With more people than ever giving up land lines for phone service, that can be a public safety issue.
I got the items free to review, and now I'm giving you the chance to win them. It's part of a shameless appeal to readers to book mark this blog for frequent visits. We'll offer money saving tips from readers, and maybe more product reviews.
We have two readers trying out a headlight-polishing kit at the moment.
